These are my first forays into the unknown territories of Metapost. The following code is copied verbatim from the matafun-manual: \startuniqueMPgraphic{copyright} picture p ; p := btex COPYRIGHT etex rotated 90 ; setbounds p to boundingbox p enlarged 1pt ; draw p withcolor .8white ; currentpicture := currentpicture xysized (\overlaywidth,\overlayheight) ; \stopuniqueMPgraphic \defineoverlay[copyright][\uniqueMPgraphic{copyright}] \setupbackgrounds[text][rightmargin][background=copyright] But I don't see anything. The log shows that metapost calculated a background, but I don't see anything. What am I doing wrong? Best Thomas
